Act I - The Fight

Zeito was worried. He was all alone in his room, walking in circles from one wall to another. He was worried about himself. He growled and sat on the bed letting all his feelings show on the surface for first time. No one could see them anyway so it didn't matter. It was a whole month now since he started to feel that way. Zeito didn't understand. He didn't know why he was acting so strange lately. And why around HIM? He run his hand through his dark hair in frustration. He thought he was going insane.

A month ago... It was a warm night. Zeito was in the park with Kageito since the Shadowloid could play only then. The sunrise was near so they were on their way home already. They used a shortcut through the alley and that's when it happened... A scream. So cold and painful they've ever heard. They froze as soon as they've heard it.

"What... was that?" Asked Kageito. He knew that whoever made that sound wasn't playing a game.

"...We should... avoid it." Said Zeito silently. It was hard for him to talk when he didn't speak at all. His vocal cords weren't used to it. He began to walk back but stopped immediately when he heard another voice. It wasn't hard to recognize since he was hearing it all the time in his house.

Taito. His brother was there. And from the tone of his voice he probably went yandere.

"Go home Kageito." He ordered his younger brother when he recognized the owner of the first voice.

Juon Kiku - red-haired yandere version of Hatsune Miku. And if she and Taito were fighting... It was bad. Really bad.

"Why?"

"Go... and inform... Kaito." He repeated. This time Kageito listened and run. At the same time Zeito get closer to the noises. He could now clearly hear the fighting. When he turned around the corner he saw them.

Both stained in blood, panting heavily. Their weapons in their hands. Kiku was smiling like a mad man. She had many bruises and a few stabs all over her body. Her left hand was shaking, barely holding her nata, with a deep cut going down from shoulder to the wrist.

On the other side stood his older brother. Taito had more cuts that were deeper than the girls. His coat tattered in some places and the left sleeve was torn apart. Looks like Kiku tried to avenge her arm but failed. He lost his eyepatch so Zeito could see his half opened eyes. Both crimson red.

The purplette was angry. In rage most likely. But tired. Oh, how tired he was really. He closed his eyes to calm himself a little and that's when Kiku jumped holding her nata high above her head aiming to slice Taito in half.

Zeito moved on instinct grabbing his brother's arm and pulling him out of the woman's way. Juon hit the ground hissing. The older Shion quickly regained his composure pushing Zeito away. The red-head gazed at them focusing on Zeito.

"Does my dearest Zeito want to play?" She said with an evil grin on her face. "So be it!"

She run to him, swinging her weapon trying to chop off his arm... Or head. And before he done anything he was pushed aback strongly. He shut his eyes and yelped when his back hit the wall behind him. When he opened them and looked up, he saw the back of his brother in front of him. Taito's forearm raised before his face stopped Kiku's nata. He took the blow for Zeito. Taito hissed taking the weapon out of the arm. The wound was deep and bleeding heavily. He then throw the knife far from its owner.

"You're fighting me!" He screamed jumping at her. It was so sudden she couldn't avoid the direct attack. Taito stabbed her in stomach. She coughed blood and fell on knees.

Taito laughed. For the first time in their fights he was on the winning side. He liked it. But it wasn't enough. He wanted more of her blood. More pain. More screaming. He wanted her to beg for her life. He wanted her... dead.

As soon as the thought crossed his mind he kicked her in the face. Kiku collapsed coughing more blood. He sat on her and dived his icepick into her body. Again... and again.

Zeito tried not to panic as he saw Taito's stabbing the red-head countless times. He must stop him before he kills her for good. Just when Taito was aiming to stab the girl's heart, he moved. He grabbed his brother's scarf pulling him away from her. But it wasn't a good idea. Not when he thinks about it now... Taito turned his rage on him.

Zeito never fight back. He wanted to protect his brother not to hurt him. But this time was different. He wasn't protecting only Tai or himself. Kiku was unconscious and losing blood too fast. If he doesn't do something...

He felt sharp pain every time his body was pierced by his brother's icepick. The purplette was avoiding his vital points though. He seemed like he wanted to cause as much pain as possible. Before he was stabbed again, he blocked the upcoming strike. He catched Taito's hand and twisted it causing him to let go of the item. The other screamed in rage when he throw the icepick far behind Taito. He growled catching Zeito's wrists. They struggled. Zeito tried to fight back but it was futile. Taito was stronger. At least, when he was in yandere state. When he was himself they were even. Then he saw the word spinning for a moment. He was knocked down and pinned to the ground with Taito on top of him. The yandere held his wrists strongly and placed them above Zeito's head preventing him from moving.

"Let... go!" Zeito was truly scared right now but didn't show it. He struggled more trying to break free from the others grasp. But he was powerless against him.

"Why should I?" He heard Taito's deep voice near his ear. "You disturbed me... For the last time."

That's when Zeito stopped moving. The purplette seriously wanted to end him. Doesn't matter if he was his brother or not. Taito wanted someone dead. Badly. And if it's not Kiku then he chose the first near person that's happened to be Zeito.

He must think of something. Fast! Before it's too late. He could not find a good option to escape from this sick situation! Think! Think Zeito, think! A memory crossed his mind. Yes! He can do that! He can do the same as Kaito once did to stop Taito's yandere mode. It was crazy idea and he eventually wouldn't do it in different situation, but now... It was worth a try. So he did it.

The moment when Taito moved his hands to place them around his brother's neck, Zeito quickly moved catching the front of the elder's coat and pulling him down. The yandere didn't react when he was brought closer to his brother. Not even when the gap between their lips disappeared, linking them together. He wasn't even shocked at all. He just felt... strange. After few seconds he closed his own eyes starting to kiss back. Zeito moaned unintentionally when his brother kissed him using more force. Again he was held by the wrists pinned to the cold ground. His eyes wide and a small blush forced its way on his cheeks. He thought the kiss will make Taito snap returning his senses. He wasn't expecting something like THIS. A moment later Taito pulled away breaking the kiss. His eyes were still red when he looked at Zeito with mischievous smile. He leaned down and whispered to his ear with husky voice:

"If you want to play before your death then I'll give you the best ride ever."

He then bite his earlobe holding his wrists with one hand and other moving to undo Zeito's coat. When he unzipped it he slid his hand under the shirt touching the body, making raven-haired boy shiver.

"Hah?! S-Stop it... Uhn!" Zeito tried to move but Taito's grip was too strong right now. He wasn't sure what is happening with him but he felt extremely hot. And the sense doubled when Taito's fingers moved up his chest and teased the nipples. - Aahn!

"Why? You seem to like it." Said the purplette as he traced his tongue down from ear to Zeito's, now exposed neck. He licked the collarbone, then sucked and bite it lightly leaving a red mark.

"Ughh... N-No... I don't wan- Mhmp?!"

His brother silenced him with another kiss. This time more aggressive one. The yandere pressed his lips hard to the others but wasn't satisfied enough. He sucked and then licked the lower lip demanding entrance. When he didn't gain it he bite it. Hard. Zeito let a silent gasp at the action unwillingly parting his mouth. Taito instantly shoved his tongue inside his warm cavern.

Zeito slowly stopped fighting as he melted into the kiss, allowing the other to do as he pleased. He lost completely. Taito's hand was tracing his body, his hot tongue discovering the insides of his mouth. He was shivering and trembling under his brother. He had no control of his body anymore. He moaned into Taito's mouth when the knee between his legs brushed his groin. Tears started to form in the corners of his eyes. He knew that Taito won't stop even if he begs him to do so. He gave in. As the kiss deepened Zeito responded. He met his brother's tongue with his own inviting it to a hot dance. The mind got even hazier with the slight passion of the kiss they had. They've parted for air. Thin trace of saliva connected them for a second before it went into oblivion. Their faces flushed, breaths heavy.

Taito moved a little and froze when he saw Zeito's expression. His brother looked miserably and he... he was crying. He NEVER saw him cry. He quickly moved away from him. It shocked him to the point he regained his senses back.

"W-W-What...?" His eyes returned to normal. Did I just... wanted to... to... r-rape Zeito?! He thought. He could not believe it. He wanted to fuck his own brother?! Not to mention he almost killed him and Kiku. Oh shit! Kiku! He looked around in search for the girl. But she was nowhere to be found. Only a puddle of blood on the spot she laid probably minutes ago. She must've regained her consciousness and went somewhere to lick her wounds. Taito knew she was strong enough to take care of herself and will be alright when he meet her again someday. Hope it won't happen fast. He returned his attention to his younger brother.

Zeito's breathing was slower now and his vision seemed blurred like it's slowly fading away. The worst thing was he was losing more blood with every passing minute. The purplette looked at his own hands. They were stained in crimson of his and the others blood. And they were shaking. What have I done?! He thought reaching down to touch Zeito's pale cheek. He caressed it lightly smearing some blood on it.

"Z-Zeito... I-I... I'm so sorry... I..." He stuttered almost whispering as the tears began to fall down from his mismatched eyes. "I didn't want to... I-I don't... I... I've hurt you so much!"

He finished weeping. His brother just stared at him. Then he did something Taito wasn't expecting. He slowly reached up and touched his cheek caressing it gently. Taito's eyes widened when he saw his lips curl into a faint smile. Zeito smiled! After all this he had done to him... He gave him a soft smile! The yandere cried more. The raven-haired moved up a little and placed a kiss on his brother's forehead.

"... I'm glad... that you're... back..." He said with a soft, calm and almost inaudible voice. He lost all his remaining strength for this one sentence.

Taito catched him before he hit the concrete. He lost consciousness and his body went numb more because of the blood loss. The purplette stopped crying, although the tears were still flowing. He stared in horror at his fainted brother. The darknette was paler than normally and his breathing was almost unnoticeable. Taito was uncertain if he was still alive.

"Z-Zeito?" No response. "Oi, wake up..." He touched his cheek; it was cold. "Come on. Open your eyes... N-Ne, Zeito? Z-Zeito... p-please don't... Don't die on me!"

He hugged him tightly laying the head on his chest. He tried to hear the heartbeat and after few seconds, he did hear it. But it was faint and slowing with each second. Taito wasn't thinking. He carefully picked up the limp body of his brother and not knowing what to do, he rushed home. I hope Master is there right now! He thought as he run down the alley.

Some minutes later Taito was at home. But before he entered the front garden he nearly bumped into Kaito. The bluenette froze as soon as he saw the two. He almost got a heart attack. Kageito warned him they might have been hurt but this was too much! Both were stained in blood as if they've bathed in it. And Taito's face... It was heartbreaking. All in tears, without eyepatch, showing only pain and suffering. He was just... pitiful. He held Zeito close like he was afraid he will disappear in any second.

"W-What... happened?" Kaito asked silently walking to them closer.

"K-Kaito-niisan..." Taito stammered; he rarely called his brother that. "P-Please... Help him... Help Zeito, Kaito-niisan!"

As he screamed he fell on his knees still holding Zeito's body. He burst with a waterfall of tears. Kaito kneeled down and checked on them both. It's not good...

"Why did you bring him here instead to the hospital?!" He asked looking at his brothers injuries.

Taito had many, many wounds but it was the other one he was worried about most. Zeito was in terrible state. Skin paler than ever dirtied with blood, his makeup totally scuffed giving him a creepy look. He was almost not breathing at all. Heck! He looked like a ghost already!

"It was... nearer... and I thought... that Master..."

"She is not here!" The bluenette shouted and took Zeito carefully on his arms from trembling yandere. He was now more scared and angry. Most likely at his purple brother who, he was sure caused all of this. But he was also angry at himself. He swore he will protect Zeito and he failed. He made quick decisions.

"AKAITO!" He shouted walking to the house. "Call Dell immediately! Nigaito, bring the med kit to the living room!"

"Kaito-nii wha-?!" The youngest one asked but run for what he was told when he saw the person in his brother's arms.

"WHAT THE HELL?!" Akaito stood in the middle of the room, phone in his hand. He was utterly stunned by the sight. He peeked behind Kaito and instantly got enraged. He walked past his twin dropping the phone and went outside.

Taito was getting up from his knees when he felt a sharp pain and his world spinned. He saw his left wrist was swollen. He must've twisted it when he fell to the ground. He was punched by Akaito. The blow was strong enough to make a cut on his bottom lip. He wiped the blood with his good hand and looked at his red brother. He didn't need that punch to feel completely defeated.

"WHAT THE FUCK YOU DID?!" Screamed the redhead as he punched his brother again. "YOU PSYCHO! I KNEW YOU WILL KILL SOMEONE ONE DAY BUT ZEITO?! YOU FREAK!"

Taito didn't answer. He just took every strike from Akaito. I deserve it.

"He trusted you!" Akaito yelled. "I knew I shouldn't let him hang out with you!"

The yandere snapped shoving Akaito of off him and standing up.

"As if you care about him! YOU were the one who bullied him from the first day!"

"Even if I don't seem like it I do care! Besides you punched him first that day! But I won't let you hurt him again!"

"You think I wanted to hurt him?!"

"Doesn't matter now! He's dying 'cause of YOU!"

"WOULD YOU TWO STOP ALREADY?!" Kaito stood in doors covered in Zeito's blood with a cold gaze, hands on his hips. He watched them for a minute and then spoke with a bit calmer voice. "Now the most important thing is Zeito's safety. NOT you're stupid quarrel." He looked at his red twin. "Did you called Dell as I asked you?"

"He's on his way."

"Good." He nodded turning around. "Now get inside. Both of you. We need to take care of your wounds Taito."

"There's no need." Said Taito looking at the ground. "I'll take care of them myself."

"Oh no! You won't!" Akaito grabbed his arm and squeezed it. "I'll do it!"

"Huh?!" He eyed him strangely.

"GET. INSIDE." Kaito was shaking with irritation. "NOW!"

They've listened him instantly.
